The geni_se_clk_freq_match() has some strange semantics. Specifically
it is defined with two modes:
1. It can find a clock that's an exact multiple of the requested rate
2. It can find a non-exact match but it can't handle multiples then
...but callers should always be able to handle a clock that is a
multiple of the requested clock so mode #2 doesn't really make sense.
Let's change the semantics so that the non-exact match can also accept
multiples and then change the code to handle that.
The only caller of this code is the unlanded SPI driver [1] which
currently passes "exact = True", thus it should be safe to change the
semantics in this way. ...and, in fact, the SPI driver should likely
be modified to pass "exact = False" (with the new semantics) since
that will allow it to work with SPI devices that request a clock rate
that doesn't exactly match a rate we can make.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
